Does /hr/ like tall ships?
>>2864763
yes, now post more or gtfo
I saw this one in person.
>>2864800
This one too.
>>2864806
It has a cloaking device.
>>2864763
Christ, Victory is a beautiful ship.
My first act of Prime Minister will be to restore her to sea worthy condition and take her to France for a good old fashion fight.
>>2864808
Constitution still floats, if you can call it the same ship.
>>2864809
>>2864809
Don't get me wrong, the Constitution is a lovely ship, but it just doesn't have the grandeur of HMS Victory. And it doesn't really have a defining moment like Victory did at the Battle of Trafalgar.
Suprrise is a neat ship. It doesn't go anywhere.
>>2864763
yeah especially victory!
>>2864814
1812 not good enough for 'ya? It's how she got the name "Old Ironsides", after all.
They can't all win the war.
HMS Surprise is the old HMS Rose (the Bounty's "sister ship"). She was renamed to Surprise and used in Msster & Commander.

>this whole thread
Muh dick! Moar!
What about fictional tall ships?
This bullshit has the swiftness of a brig but the firepower of a heavy frigate. More like a first rate ship o' the line when fully upgraded.
>>2866205
from where/what?
>>2866299
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag.
If you want a more realistic tall ships game, there's Naval Action.
>>2866205
i was so disappointed when i found out you could upgrade the crap out of it, but it would never become a larger ship
taking on ships of the line was borderline ridiculous

> The Andrew Jackson figurehead was removed at this time (1875-1876) and given to the Naval Academy Museum where it remains today.

1v1 Victory vs Constitution
Who wins?
>>2867105
9 vs 13 cannons
constitution ftw
>>2867107
You're looking at the wrong Victory. The Victory we talk about here has 52 cannons on each side (plus or minus a few, it's complicated)
Would Consitution's speed make up for its much lesser armament? How far could the longest guns hit? How fast could Victory turn?
>>2865567
Pretty sure you lose if your headquarters gets burned down, just saying.
Personally, I think it needs more crosses.

Here is the sister ship of the Sagres.
I crewed on this ship for a month, that was the best month of my life
>>2868132
Sure, but the *ship* did just fine. The claim was that she didn't have a "defining moment".
>>2866300
Thanks!
>>2869938
when you forget to upgrade your units
this thread is awesome. I have always loved ships, since I a was a kid. I wish I could enjoy the ocean, imagine going away on a ship and see the world. But the ocean terrifies me.

>>2864814
What the fuck did you just say about my shipfu?
>>2868132
If only real war worked like an online video game.
>>2864814
She defeated five British warships: HMS Guerriere, Java, Pictou, Cyane, and Levant in the War of 1812. HMS Guerrière and HMS Java were both 38-gun frigates. She defeated the Cyane and Levant in dual combat causing the Levant to retire and capturing the Cyane.HMS Victory was a first rate ship of the line amid 26 other ships in a pitched battle against a larger but less capable ships. It was a brilliant and decisive win but HMS Victory was the flagship which is why she gets the credit. Old Ironsides defined the US navy and established our ability to compete on the high seas with the rest of the world.
